cut out city furniture details	run over city plants
		in this ongoing project, I collect the decorative plants sown across city of Ankara by the municipality, as a "beautification" work.
There were 24 million plants sown across the city in 2014, according to the records of the municipality. These plants are not sown to grow, to root into soil but to decorate the city.	in that sense, these uprooted plants follow a similar path to citydwellers who walk past, do not dwell in the city.	they tell the story of our own un-belonging
"I may ‘belong to’ this other, comfortable, part of England in the sense that I am owned by it – must obey its laws, conform, more or less, to its customs and so forth, have been inculcated into its narratives, and may participate in its democratic processes however attenuated – in return for the not inconsiderable benefits of being one of its subjects (we cannot – yet? – say citizens), but it does not in any sense belong to me. " (Massey, 2011)
